Fry Explains
Television
Last Friday at an assembly in
Central auditorium Junior College students were given a look
into the future of television in
our country. Mr. Ted Fry,
manager of the Rochester Telephone Company office, gave as
an opinion that although television is still not a thing of the
immediate future, many of us
may be seeing television broadcasts by 1950.
Mr. Fry gave an interesting
account of the beginning of television and the conditions under
which it is now being developed,
along with demonstrations of
Photo-electric cells, cathode ray
tubes, and various other bits of
equipment used in the process of
"seeing radio." Although to
many the principles of image reproduction, photo transmission,
etc., are incomprehensible, Mr.
Fry left us with an idea of how
television works.
The coaxial cable from Des
Moines to Minneapolis to be
completed in June 1948, will
carry some television broadcasts
from the Twin Cities, but the
possibility of Rochester residents
receiving such programs with
much clarity is rather slim.

Tonight, the frustrated occupants of the hallowed Third
Floor—namely, all students of Rochester Junior College who
have been busily occupied the past week with frenzied cramming
for the mid-semester exams will find welcome respite for their
worries in what the freshmen regard as the most important social
event of the year: The Freshman Class Party,
Freshman Class President Bob Hentges wishes to dispel all
rumors which have been circulating recently about the party.

Jaysee Chorus
Reduced to Faithful
Since cooperation from J. C.
students who voiced their desire
at the beginning of the year to
be in the J. C. chorus has been
very unsatisfactory, Mr. Sidney
Suddendorf, director of the
group, announced recently that
he has cut the membership to a
minimum of those students who
have been coming regularly to
rehearsals.
Plans were originally
made at the beginning of
the semester to give Faure's
"Requiem" with the high

is a date that will live in the
memory of all true-blue R. J. C.
students. For that exceptional
Thursday was the date of the
Phi Theta Kappa initiation,
and students were baffled by
sights such as respectable male
J. C.'s running around wearing
mis-mated shoes and socks, reeking with perfume, and actually
carrying the books of female
students; and female students running around with their
hair in ribbons, their noses
painted red and their lips devoid
of lipstick.
These were some of the
conditions imposed by the
scheming P. T. K. sophomores on their unwary initiates. It seems there is
more to getting into the
Greek academic honor society than just being intelligent; one must also endure the "informal" Initiation Day—which has often been regarded as a definite discouragement to the
high scholastic standing of
this institution.
formal initiation was held. Each
new member took his oath to
Phi Theta Kappa, which was
read by President Ted Cadwell.
Chuck Carney, Vice President,
read the constitution, after
which Warren Wiese, Treasurer,
explained the key of Phi Theta
Kappa and Secretary Gloria
Gray read the history of the society.
Then Dean Goddard,
who with Mrs. Goddard
was a guest at initiation,
gave a short speech reminding the initiates not to bury
the talent for which they
were receiving recognition,
and the initiation was concluded. Miss Louise Barthelemy, who is the adviser
of the local chapter, was
also in attendance, seeing
that all the kinks were
straightened out of the
meeting. Miss Barthelemy
especially enjoyed Bob
Hentges' story earlier in the
evening when he described
the three Greeks, "Phi,
Theta, and Kappa."
This party has been organized
by the frosh for the entertainment of the ENTIRE student
body. Both freshmen and
sophomores are invited to attend; all arrangements and preparations have been made by
members of the Freshman Class.
The refreshment committee,
capably headed by Dagmar Gus-
tafson, will have plenty of delicious food on hand for people
like Bill Sandberg. The decorations for,the North Gym will
be handled by a committee under Donna Whitney, whose
work with the Homecoming
dance and the Women Pay-All
dance needs no mention here.
